hashcat Forum

First of all, as it's my first post here, hello to everyone

All the hash codes of a database linked to a phpbb forum start with $H$9
Exemple: $H$9xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx which corresponds to test00
Is $H$9 part of the hash code or should I remove it before running the program?

EDIT: Hash has been removed.

no.. u shouldn't..
not all of (MD5(phpBB3)) hashes start with "$H$9"..

It's part of the hash. (It's the hash identifier.)

Thank you. I'll leave it then.
I was not saying all MD5 hashes start with $H$9, only that in this particular database they all start with that (AFAIK, I have not looked at all the rows).
